No, it's not a Russian domesticated fox. Those are silverish and have floppy ears due to domestication. I second your question: how/why do you have a fox? It looks magical.
Maybe to hear the HE HE HE HE HE. It's therapeutic.
More like Hattee Hattee Hattee Haw!
They never claimed it was their pet. They just called it their buddy.
This isn't necessarily the case - they have a wild variety of coat colours and markings, ear floppiness is variable. They tend to have slightly wider snoots than their wild cousins.
This probably is still a wild one though.
Source: lived with someone who kept them!
Also curious about why the fox!
